Kenya Ballooning over the Masai Mara
There is nothing that can compare to the rare experience of Masai Mara game viewing while standing quietly in the basket of a hot air balloon as it floats through the calm dawn skies. With such elevated panoramic views, visitors are guaranteed a great African experience.
Most operators start the day with a dawn coffee rendezvous, before inflating the balloon and lifting off just before sunrise. While the Masai Mara plains (and often the Big Five) are a given from this elevated position, some travellers are lucky enough to witness the phenomenal wildebeest migration. The balloon will descend occasionally for a close-up look at the wildlife, or rise to clear the riverine forest.
The thrilling excursion could be finished off with a champagne breakfast out ‘in the wild’, or a game drive back to the take-off point. The balloon safari can be incorporated in a camping tour or booked separately, and there are about seven lodges offering this adventure in the Masai Mara.
